Reminds of playing football...the coach gives you a play...you call a different one...you throw a touchdown pass..
One coach is mad...another is glad you got the win...
I follow the line of thinking that if I put points on the board...you can whine all you want about how I am a cowboy...the Prom queen is coming home with me. Results count in this business, not how many buddies you keep happy. Not everyone sees it that way though.
Sully put an airbus into the river...it was either that or hit the side of a building...he gets points for no loss of life...if he had been able to do a u turn, dead stick back to his departed field successfully everyone would have whined about how he could have killed everyone..despite saving the plane as well as people.
Seems the gold standard these days is to what is expected, but if you do a little more your reviled for it. I guess it's ok to be good, just not that good.
